Plot Summary:Its a world where everyone tells the truth - and just about anything theyre thinking. Mark Bellison is a screenwriter, about to be fired. Hes short and chunky with a flat nose - a genetic pool that means he wont get to first base with Anna, the woman he loves. Then, when his mothers on her deathbed, frightened of the eternal void that awaits her, Mark invents fiction. The hospital staff overhear his description of Heaven, believe every word, and tell others. Soon Mark is a prophet, his first inventive screenplay makes him rich, and hes basically a good guy. But will that be enough for Anna?
